Dream of Red Mansions: The Strongest Dandy
Chapter 52
In 1840, during the Daoguang period, the poor and weak Qing Dynasty was finally opened by the Westerners' strong ships and artillery, and a century of humiliation began.
The Qing Dynasty was a sinner who was beaten backward in the modern Celestial Empire!
Zhen Baoyu must correct this mistake and put the Celestial Empire, which was delayed by the Qing Dynasty, back on the right track of prosperity!
He wants to conquer Goryeo, conquer Japan, occupy the New World, and even fight to Europe, so that the glory of China will spread all over the world!
With drawings and technology, all that remains is money, countless money!
The start-up capital is these family foundations of Jiafu.
Jiafu has been in business for several generations, and has accumulated millions of silver taels, all of which are kept by Sister Feng.
This is also the reason why Zhen Baoyu spared no effort to occupy Sister Feng's heart - only by winning Sister Feng can he hope to win the money and financial resources of Jiafu and the capital for his operation.
And then what to do?
To do business, to do big business, to use money, to make money!
Unfortunately, the domestic business of the Qing Dynasty was monopolized by various interest groups.
This is also the reason why Sister Feng and Ping'er dare not put gold and silver into business - on the territory of interest groups, even Jiafu will be blackened.
But Zhen Baoyu is not afraid!
He got the idea, it was ocean smuggling!
Some people say that the Qing Dynasty didn't issue a ban on the sea, and it was not allowed to go to the sea?
This is not accurate.
But in fact, the Qing Dynasty's foreign trade was extremely prosperous.
Merchants of the Celestial Empire were not subject to the so-called "only allowed to trade in Guangdong", and could trade at sea from the four customs. In the tenth year of Daoguang (1830), 222 ships of the Celestial Empire traded from Chaozhou and Hainan in Guangdong, Xiamen in Fujian, Ningbo in Zhejiang, Shanghai and Suzhou in Jiangsu to Japan, the Philippine Islands, the Malacca Islands, Xinjiapo, the Malayan Peninsula, Siam, Annam, Cambodia and other places. The tariffs collected in a year alone reached a staggering 1.5 million taels of silver, and the profit from trade was more than ten times more.
Of course, the Qing Dynasty's foreign trade only required the state officials to set fires, and the people were not allowed to light lamps. The Qing Dynasty officially set up the Thirteen Foreign Firms in Guangzhou, which was specifically responsible for foreign trade. A comprador class with huge profits has been formed, and among these privileged compradors, especially the wealthy families of the four clans of Pan, Lu, Wu, and Ye have made the most profits.
Of course, these wealthy compradors did not stand up on their own, and they were all supported by important ministers or nobles of the imperial court. Now it is said that Yunrong, the king of Beijing, put his hand into the big cake of foreign trade and reaped great benefits, no wonder he was able to gain the upper hand in the contest with Yongzheng.
Zhen Baoyu is aiming at this huge benefit!
But in order to reach into this huge interest market, you must first have power, power, and permission.
Zhen Baoyu sneered.
He went on a date with Yuan Chun this time to find a way to get this foreign trade permit.
After that, he will use the ship drawings exchanged by the system to produce powerful steam ships, eliminate ships that are only suitable for offshore trade voyages, and greatly surpass this era in terms of technology, and defeat other trade opponents!
What? What if they don't accept it?
Then go to the sea, disguise yourself as a pirate, and attack frequently, no matter what tricks you use, Zhen Baoyu will monopolize this market with extremely lucrative profits!
He picked up Sister Feng's delicate and lovely chin, and said with an evil smile: "Sister-in-law, you just need to take the silver back and hand it all over to me." A year later, I will turn these taels into ten times. "
Sister Feng was occupied by this Baoyu, and completely trusted Zhen Baoyu, and muttered in a blur of phoenix eyes: "Everything depends on you." It's just that this silver is the foundation of my Jiafu, if I lose my capital, your sister-in-law will have to hang myself to apologize. "
Zhen Baoyu laughed and slapped her palm on Sister Feng's two petals: "Sister-in-law, just rest assured." I'm in charge of everything! The good night is short, Sister Feng Ping'er, you two haven't climbed up to the spring couch yet, let's practice. "
For a while, it was spring again in the house.
Early the next morning, Zhen Baoyu returned to the room, but was surprised to see an uninvited guest.
"Uncle Bao" Qin Keqing, who was chatting with the attacker, stood up slowly, with willow eyebrows and starry eyes, skin like snow, lips like cherries, Yao nose delicate, slightly upturned peach mouth also revealed a shallow smile, and said coquettishly in a coquettish tone: "Uncle Bao has forgotten the agreement with Keqing?"
Zhen Baoyu patted his head.
I really forgot.
He promised to give Qin Keqing alchemy, and Qin Keqing also promised to be his furnace and help him refine the pill.
I'm rubbing, what can I do with this alchemy?
Zhen Baoyu's gaze fell on his nephew and daughter-in-law Qin Keqing.
This Qin Keqing is worthy of being one of the twelve golden hairpins, his face is like a crescent moon, his cherry mouth is small, he seems to be happy, his long hair hangs down his shoulders, and his complexion is like mutton fat and white jade, reflecting the snow. The body is sultry, the figure is exquisite, and Zhou's body exudes a soul-seducing temperament, which is worthy of royal blood, and the golden branch is lustful.
Such a baby, even if she knows that she has been stared at by Yongzheng, she is a hot potato, and Zhen Baoyu is reluctant to let go.
Zhen Baoyu's eyes rolled, he already had an idea, and said with a slight smile: "Keqing, I have recently refined two of these Dingyan Pills, and I am not busy, how about sending them to you in person?"
When Qin Keqing heard that Dingyan Dan was there, he was overjoyed, and said with deep blessings: "It's so troublesome uncle, but Keqing really can't help it." Rong'er also deeply appreciates you!".
Hearing Jia Rong's name, Zhen Baoyu frowned imperceptibly.
Does he know Jia Rong, this bastard!
In the book, Jia Rong, a fool, actually shamelessly dedicated Qin Keqing to his father Jia Zhen!
That Jia Zhen was in Tianxiang Building, defiling Qin Keqing.
After Qin Keqing was humiliated, he was overwhelmed and hanged himself on Tianxiang Tower.
A fresh and beautiful life fell in Ningguofu!
Otherwise, with her such a healthy body, how could she suddenly die violently?
The filth of Ning Guofu behind this is simply outrageous!
Even Bao Er of Ning Guofu pointed and scolded: "Pick up the ashes! Raise the little uncle and raise the little uncle!".
